According to WCVB-TV, Daniel's mother had a family court appearance scheduled for that morning that she never showed up for. Police said Andrea Britt thought she may lose custody of Daniel, and took off. Woonsocket police said she may be en route to Washington state, which would violate a Rhode Island family court order. Police said Britt was driving a 2004 red Ford sedan with Rhode Island registration 942-649.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Daniel Britt or Andria Britt is asked to call the Woonsocket Police Department at 401-766-1212.
